Where Can I Port Numbers In From?

Modified on: Fri, 17 Oct, 2014 at 9:53 AM

Both UK geographic numbers, and non-geographic numbers (‘NGN’,
e.g. 0800 0845, 0330 numbers) can be ported into our SIP Trunk Plus service via
one or the other of our two underlying carriers. In order for a port to take place a porting agreement must
be in place between the network providers.

You can look up the current provider and range holder of a
given number here: http://www.telecom-tariffs.co.uk/codelook.htm:
the ‘Original Operator’ is the Range Holder and this must be one of the Network
providers listed in the table below; the ‘Operator’ is the ‘Current Communications
Provider / Operator’.
